I’m hear a sound from the rear at 50+ mph, esp on flat but not newly asphalted roads.
I’m trying to decide whether it’s the rear wheel bearing or the CV Any tips on how to pinpoint the problem ? Can the source be I pointed by running the car on a lift ? |

Find a parking lot where you can do slow doughnuts in both directions. If it's a CV you will typically hear and feel a clunk as it binds.
A bearing typically just squeals. |
